October 12, 1927 - October 12, 2001

I'd love to know what was going on just prior to snapping this pic:

[BOSSHOG]

3. Mom, I've loved you every day since you left us on 11 March 1966

[Tikki]

You truly have my heart.

5. My mom

She passed away June 15, 2005 from Ovarian Cancer. I never in my life expected to lose her so soon. I miss you mom.

[supernova]

6. Momma always loved wearing a rose

on her lapel from the rose bush just outside the kitchen door on Mother's Day. They are a kind of deep burgundy velvet. She preferred that one to store-bought flowers.

I miss you Momma. She died in July of 1996 from breast cancer.

Tomorrow I'm having lunch with my family, my sister, my niece, her husband, and her two children.

7. My Mom left this planet 26 years ago

but the best part of her remains with me and my siblings. She was a wonderful, caring individual who always made others feel welcome in her home and always thought of others first. I miss you Mom, hope you like how things have turned out for your kids!

[Akoto]

8. My grandmother passed away last week.

She was pretty much my second mom. I miss her already. :(

I try to focus on the positive memories, though.

[UrbScotty]

18. I am sorry to hear about her passing.

:hug:

[Catshrink]

9. I miss you Mom!

My mom died New Year's Day, 2004. I think of her constantly and miss her so terribly much.

She and Dad were married for 65 years. This isn't a very good photo of her, but it's the only one I have uploaded.

[sarge43]

13. Your parents are beautiful, Catshrink n/t

[buddhamama]

10. in remembrance

of Moms no longer with us. Peace! :hug:

[sarge43]

11. Moms never leave us. They're just puttering around in the other room.

We'll see them again.

[wildhorses]

46. i like that sarge. very comforting.

:think: if you had a journal that would be a good entry :patriot:

:hug:

:hi:

[sarge43]

49. Thank you.

Well, that's the way I feel about it. I don't miss my mother because she's really not gone. I believe she's very close by and we'll see each other again.

[seemunkee]

12. Two days before 9/11 my mom lost her 15 year battle with cancer

Mentally she was ready to fight another round but her body had enough. She loved her plants and gardening and I always think of her when I'm working in my garden.
I miss you mom.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

I miss her every day.

[SPKrazy]

29. awwww

:hug:

[TOhioLiberal]

51. She was the best!

Kind, sweet, loving. She didn't have a mean bone in her body. Everybody was her friend. I miss her so much.

[u4ic]

16. It's hitting me kind of hard this year

My mom:




Oct 13, 1921 - July 10, 1997

She was such a kind, tolerant, wise and fun person. She didn't have a lot of the latter in her life, but it did peek out, once in a while.


Here's a hug for you, GoPsUx. :hug: Your mom had a friendly face, and a very warm sense about her.

[Guava Jelly]

17. Thank you u4ic

Your mom has a very warm sense about her as well.And if she is anything like you m'friend she had to have been pretty special.
:hug: and another for tomorrow :hug:
(You have her dimples) :D

[SPKrazy]

30. ...

a :hug: for you

[UrbScotty]

19. My maternal grandmother left us six years ago.

She would have turned 91 Monday.

Paternal Grandma isn't in good shape either. :-(

[cwydro]

20. Thanks for this thread

My roomie is still dealing with the loss of her mom a few months ago.

My mom is 80 and here visiting.

I don't ever want to lose her.

[SPKrazy]

26. ...

:hug:

[Kajsa]

21. Thank you, GoPsUx, for this thread.

My Mom is still with us, but she's in poor health
so I don't know for how long.

My Mother-in-law ( no 'ex' there- she was like a second Mom to me)
passed away August 24th, 1999. We were in Maui, where my ex-husband
lived at the time, when we found out. The vacation ended there, we got
home as soon as possible.
I remember her and miss her a lot.
There are so many times I want to pick up the phone and call her-
then I remember I can't, so I talk to her anyway.

Your Mom looks like a very kind and wonderful person.
She's raised a great son, and I know she's smiling down at us.

Thanks, again.

:hug:

[SPKrazy]

27. ...

[Kajsa]

50. You too, SPK!

:hug:

[Kali]

22. thanks

I miss my mom all the time.

[cloudbase]

23. Lost mine in 1992

and not a day goes by that I don't miss her. A bit rougher this year as my mother in law passed away last month.

[Adsos Letter]

24. I lost my mom

in 1983. She was a loving, and well loved person. She left way too soon, at 50 yrs. old.

Alcoholism steals way too many from us...

[RevCheesehead]

25. Let's hear it for our Moms named Ellie!

Thanks for remembering all of us, G. :hi:

It's a little easier this year, but I still miss you, Mom. :hug:
In happier, healthier times:

[SPKrazy]

31. hey rev

as i recall you were so supportive when i lost my mom here

:hug:

thanks

and thanks again!

[Critters2]

32. How nice. Wish I could still hear my mom's voice.

She lost her battle to glioblastoma, a brain tumor, on July 27, 2005. The last thing she did, before being too ill for much of anything, was to help me pack and move here. She wasn't feeling well, so went home to see the doctor, assuring me she'd be back by the end of the week to help me unpack. Left on Monday, doctor's appointment on Tuesday, more tests on Wednesday--when they confirmed the tumor, surgery on Thursday, and she was never really herself again.

I'll always remember our last "girls' night out". We took a break from packing, went to a Chinese buffet for dinner, then to see "National Treasure". Had a great time together.

I miss her.

[Digit]

33. I lost my mother in 1998, and I was her caregiver

My brother and I do not speak since then. I blame him for her dying as he would not allow me to change hospitals. The hospital killed her, and I had felt I had to change her to another one. She had pneumonia, and I caught the nurses or nurse's aides while she was in ICU feeding her pudding while she had a breathing mask on. Even I had been told not to feed her when she had the breathing mask on! She was aspirating the pudding and I heard the noises assoicated with that. Once I pointed it out, they whisked me out of the room, and tried to clear out her lungs.

She rapidly went downhill after that.

Mom, I miss you....you were my best friend in the whole world. I am sorry I was not able to protect you better.

[wildhorses]

35. oh digit, i am so sorry to read this.

:hug: please go gentle on yourself and i hope someday you can mend with your brother. so sad for you both :hug:



O8) and i just also want to add the i miss both my grandmothers. they were wonderful and,
they both loved me in their different ways O8)

thanks for this thread gopsux:hug:

[Digit]

36. Your response was very kind

I appreciate your post and know that death is just a transition.

Love is eternal.

Your grandmothers sound like they were very fine people. I know they loved you very much.

Peace

:hug:

[reyd reid reed]

34. I lost mine

on August 5, 1977. You never stop missing her.

[Dervill Crow]

37. How wonderful to hear her voice.

What a sweet smile your mom has. :hug:

My mom was born May 7, 1922, and passed on April 22, 1987. I didn't realize until I did the math just now that it's been 20 years. I miss my mom every day, but this time of year is especially hard.





on edit: I have cassette tapes that my mom recorded as "letters" to her sister the year I got married. Your recording of your mom made me realize I should get those out and put them on CD.

[Monk06]

38. April Fools day 2000 for my mum. I spread her ashes on Siwash Rock

just a few blocks from where it live.

She's still there.. Hi Mum Love You.

[Skittles]

39. I have my dad's voice on tape, giving a weather report on the radio

he was a meteorologist, died 22 years ago

[DFW]

40. I last saw my mom exactly five years ago

She went suddenly and peacefully shortly after that.

She was one of us--my dad, too:

[av8rdave]

41. Miss you mom

I lost my mom on Feb 20, 2001. RPI and happy mother's day

[michaz]

42. I have my Mom's voice on her tape from her answering machine also.

She died in 1991 and I miss her every day! But how wonderful memories are.

[Swede]

43. This is my first mother's day without mom.

Mom,I miss you.

[zanne]

48. I'm so sorry, Swede.

That's hard. I think she knows how much you miss her.

[peacefreak]

44. Happy Mother's Day, Peggy.

She's been gone since 1974, but on my mind especially this year. My daughter gave birth to her first child & oh, how I wish she could have known both of them. Everything I learned about love I learned from my mother. I would give anything for just one more hug.

[Haole Girl]

45. I always liked this pic of my mother:

[zanne]

47. My mother always hated having her picture taken...

Happy Mother's Day, mom. I miss you every day.
